Get your Chili on


Not much to say about Chili. It needs to be balanced, not too much Tomatoes, meaty and beany with heat enough to make your nose run but not kill your taste buds. This was enjoyed by my Family and myself. Very filling, satisfying and warming to the soul.

Chili

3.5 lbs of Ground Beef of choice ( cook and drain fat)
2 medium White Onions, chopped
10 Garlic Cloves, crushed and minced
1 large Green Bell Pepper, diced
2 cans of stewed diced Tomatoes with green chiles
1 small can of mild Green Chiles
2 cans each of: Light Red Kidney Beans, Dark Red Kidney Beans, Pinto Beans and Great Northern White Beans
1 Tbsp. Penzy Spice Chili 3000
Cumin Powder, Black pepper, Chili Powder, Cayenne pepper, Paprika, Salt to taste. (Sorry..I don't measure I do a bit of this..a bit of that..a dash of that and taste and adjust)


1. After browning and draining the beef from the grease, I started sauteing the Onions, garlic, Peppers in a little Olive Oil. Added the beef back in along with the chiles, Tomatoes, and all the beans. Added the seasonings to my liking and stirred quite well until it started arriving to a low boil. I covered and simmered low for 30 minutes.

I serve mine with Shredded cheese, sour cream and Tortilla chips. I also like nice bread with butter or even noodles. Its so versatile and just simply comforting. I changed this up a bit this time with the Penzy spice Chili 3000. Give it a try, adds a nice touch. I at times add ground mustard, Red Hot, throw some Jalapeno in it so they stew up and give a nice kick. Little celery also. Mmmm..pretty soon my White Chicken Chili.
